You are clearly very conscientious when it comes to your overlanding (cleaning up after others, not using campsites that you did not book etc.) Very happy to call you a fellow South-African. A class act. In all probability you are also fellow followers of the Lord Jesus Christ Who is God and His Holy Ghost 🙌🏿 ✝️ 🧎🏾. All the best to you and your loved ones - may the Lord be with you...

Thanks for the comment and for watching. It sometimes gets difficult, but one has to be open minded, especially when traveling to an area visited by so many people. It should never spoil the trip.. that is our rule. Rather fix it and keep things in tact for the next visitors

Just a curious camper trailer question; would it be worth changing the springs to have an extra 50mm? That might bring your hitch height level with your bumper and reduce the plowing of your towbar. It's a common thing in Aus. But you would have to extend your support legs for leveling and maybe your entry step/ladder.
@OurLifeInAfrica4 ай бұрын
Hi. The Cruiser already has a lift, as well as air springs in the back. We use that to completely level the towing combination. Then only the towball is the lowest point which normally creates the anchor. Since this video we have increased both the tyre sizes on the trailer and the cruiser, and this gives more ground clearance all over. Thanks for the comment and suggestion

Awesome episode. Thank you for sharing. So great to see how the track looks from Nossob to Mabua. Last time I I did the route was in July 2010 and it’s amazing how the track is opened up. Good to see that toilets have been built at Motopi as it was a minefield of toilet paper the last time we camped there. Thanks for sharing another great adventure. Looking forward to the next one
@OurLifeInAfrica2 жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching Bruce. The route has changed quite a lot. Even in the last couple of years. The irony about the toilets that have been built is that right behind it there is still a minefield of toilet paper lying around. It still is an amazing place though, and we will continue to return there

Baie goeie video. Terloops wat was jou banddruk in daai dik sand. Dink jy moes hom meer laat sak het. Jy kan self so laag as 1,2 bar gaan
@OurLifeInAfrica2 жыл бұрын
Hi. Het hom laat sak volgens my TPMS in tires. Dit was foutief-raak daaraan in my volgende video. Ek ry gewoonlik so 2bar agter met companion gehak, en so 1.4 voor. Het uit dik sand gekom n paar keer selfs laer as 1.2. Ek hou maar in gedagte dat die 3ply wiele nie van lae druk hou nie
@TheJKreef Жыл бұрын
Ja ek wil saam stem...jy kon dalk bietjie laer laat sak het as 2 bar agter...maar dis ook belangrik dat jou sleeptuig se band druk ook moet laat sak word...anders sleep jy later n ploeg agterna. Ek stem saam dat 3 ply bande nie hou van te lae druk nie...maar as jy stadig ry...behoort jy nie sidewall damage te kry. Kom dit nou van n Sandvelder af🤣

Hi. What was you avg fuel consumption? Curious what the v6 with that trailer gave you.
@OurLifeInAfrica2 жыл бұрын
Hi. We normally average around 4.5km/l on loose sand roads. 6km/l on slow going roads and around 5-5.5km/l on the open roads towing the companion This time tough we averaged 3.6km/l, but we had a fault with our tire pressures. Was way too low.

Wow okay 👌 if you say so One question though, what is the maximum traveling speed when towing a trailer?

@bonnyfacemoswetsi depends on the road conditions. In the bush I would say that it depends, as you should always slow down, even without towing..
